MS and DRM

Software from MS means DRM comes bundled at no extra charge.

Ok for all the Microsoft haters here what do you offer as a better solution? Not something you think might be better, but that is in use now and is proving to be a better solution than what Microsoft has to offer.

I don't hate MS. I love Windows and other software from them without DRM.

What are the MS alternatives?
1. Routers: SkyStream, Tut Systems, UTStarCom, Minerva...
2. STBs: Pace, Amino, Createl, UTStarCom, GlobeCast...
3. Middleware: Minerva, Myrio, UTStarCom, WorldGate,...
4. Operating Systems: Linux, VxWorks, Nucleus,...
4. Service Providers: Over 100 telephone service providers
servicing US medium to small towns and rural areas,
as well as NTT Japan and other European providers.
These guys are earning money today from delivering IPTV
to their customers, and none of them use MS, except maybe for their employees to play games.
These medium to small guys couldn't care less about
MS. They just went ahead and did it. Only the big bozos
like Verizon and SBC are falling for the MS bull.

Do your homework. Check out these links:
»www.tutsystems.com
»www.skystream.com
»www.myrio.com
»www.minervanetworks.com
»www.kasenna.com
etc.

And NO, I don't work for any of these guys.

Any questions?
